Monk Gyatso + Lightning Greaves + Fyndhorn Elder

Monk Gyatso

Lightning Greaves

Fyndhorn Elder

How it works

1. Activate Lightning Greaves' equip ability by paying 0, targeting Fyndhorn Elder.
2. Monk Gyatso triggers. Choose not to airbend Fyndhorn Elder.
3. Resolve Lightning Greaves' ability, attaching it to Fyndhorn Elder.
4. Activate Fyndhorn Elder by tapping it, adding
5. Activate Lightning Greaves' equip ability by paying 0, attaching it to Monk Gyatso.
6. Activate Lightning Greaves' equip ability by paying 0, targeting Fyndhorn Elder.
7. Monk Gyatso triggers, airbending Fyndhorn Elder.
8. The Lightning Greaves ability fizzles due to no longer having a legal target.
9. Cast Fyndhorn Elder from exile by paying 2.
10. Repeat.

This clever loop turns the free re-targeting of Lightning Greaves into a repeatable engine with Monk Gyatso, who triggers whenever a creature becomes the target of a spell or ability. By repeatedly bouncing the Greaves back and forth between targets, you continually trigger Monk Gyatso to exile Fyndhorn Elder with his airbend ability—putting the druid right back into exile so you can recast it for just {2}. While Fyndhorn Elder provides the mana to fuel these repeated castings, the true brilliance here is how the passive shroud from Lightning Greaves protects your combo pieces while their activated abilities and targeting triggers spin completely out of control.
